DPI Comparative Cost per Member, 2024-25: the district's general and special-project fund spending, less transportation, facility acquisition, interfund transfers and revenue for instruction of non-resident pupils (tuition, CESA and cooperative receipts, and state integration aid for non-residents). DPI divides by the district's resident aid membership, not its enrollment: aid membership adds summer-school FTE and pupils in the private school choice, special needs scholarship and independent charter programs, and leaves out non-resident open-enrollment pupils.
Measure: Total current education cost (TCEC) per member (DPI).
